Eastleigh ground questions are handled by us

Common applications
What can a ground screw base support?
From garden rooms and offices to sheds and studios, ground screws create a strong, level base without filling your garden with excavated soil or wet concrete.
Garden offices
Level support for framed garden rooms and offices.
Summerhouses
Timber buildings suited to point supports.
Workshops
Structures with a defined grid.
Decking
Raised platforms with suitable restraint.
How installation day works
Accurate layout, high-torque installation and laser checks
The building footprint sets the positions, purpose-built machinery installs the screws and a laser controls the finished support heights.
-
1 The frame dimensions guide every support position.
Set out the footprint
We measure and square the building area, then place the screws into their planned pilot points.
-
2 Firm machine installation is combined with laser accuracy.
Install to level
Our professional high-torque machine drives the supports while a laser guides the final height.

Eastleigh ground screw price guide
Guide prices for common garden-building sizes, based on a standard installation. The two options make it clear whether JustBases or another supplier is providing the frame.
| Building size | Installed ground screws Frame by others | Installed screws + timber frame |
|---|---|---|
| 8' x 6' 2.4m x 1.8m 48 ft² / 4.46 m² | £1,180 | £1,650 |
| 10' x 8' 3m x 2.4m 80 ft² / 7.43 m² | £1,280 | £1,750 |

| 20' x 10' 6m x 3m 200 ft² / 18.58 m² | £1,600 | £2,450 |
These are guide prices for standard installations. Your free written quotation confirms the exact price for your building and garden, including any support frame supplied by JustBases. Larger or unusual foundations are priced individually.
A simpler way to build the base
Why choose ground screws instead of a dug base?
For many Eastleigh gardens, ground screws reduce excavation, deliveries and waiting time while creating a strong level platform.
| Factor | Ground screw foundation | Excavated concrete or aggregate base |
|---|---|---|
| Excavation | At support locations | Across much of the footprint |
| Access | Lower bulk movement | Spoil and concrete movements |
| Slope | Can support a raised frame | May need extra digging to create the level |
| Programme | No concrete cure | Curing required |
Craig will recommend the foundation that makes sense for the building and plot. Other JustBases base types are available when more suitable.
Easy to arrange
Narrow alley or new-build side gate? Ask us
Ground screw work avoids many loads of spoil, aggregate and concrete, which can make compact garden access much easier to manage.
You do not need to measure everything before the first call. A photo helps if convenient, or we can pop out when access needs seeing.

Helpful local information
Helpful Eastleigh planning links
Many domestic garden buildings use permitted development rights. Planning normally concerns the finished building's size, height, use and position rather than the screws alone.
Eastleigh Borough Council provides local tree and conservation information. These checks can run alongside your foundation quote.
You do not need to settle every planning detail before speaking with us. The links are here if they help, and Craig is happy to explain which parts relate to the base.
